It&#039;s like that old saying: Wherever you go, there you are.

Wherever you may contemplate moving -&#039;there is America&#039;.

The way to counter this &#039;insanity&#039; is to expose it, pull it out by the roots, compost it and replace it.

We have to start with the Demo party, the cure starts with our own house. My most ardent wish would be for Cindy Sheehan to do an &#039;in your face&#039; move and rejoin the Demo party, fight to replace Palosi and expose the DLC for what it is. Right now Sheehan is the voice of what the Demo party should stand for.</description>

		<description>j snow: Thanks for your thoughtful comment.

kevns007: We&#039;re starting to win.  This is definitely not the time to give up.

Cole: We need to take over the Democratic Party in the same way that the right wingers took over the Republican Party.</description>

		<description>David,

You are one of my very favorite current affairs commentators.  You are clear, concise and succinct in your words.  I agree with everything you say, but I would like to add a few thoughts.

1.  Ever since the father of modern Propaganda, Edward L Bernays, turned his uncle&#039;s (Sigmund Freud) psychotherapy into the plague of corporate mass media, all Americans have been fed a steady diet of &quot;protecting American Honor and Patriotism&quot; while the imperial industrialists (like John D Rockefeller, J P Morgan, et al) running our country use the US Military as its private army to do their bidding.   Everyone seems to forget that Exxon believed that there were significant oil reserves off the coast of Viet Nam so that LBJ was doing the bidding of his Texas oil buddies as much as feeding Dow Chemical, Olin and the rest of the Defense Industry.  Note: America&#039;s imperialists have used America&#039;s Armed Forces to protected their Latin American interests with brute force when necessary since James Madison declared the Monroe Doctrine in 1803.  

2.  The Corporatocracy are very, very happy with George W Bush&#039;s rule.  Even Warren Buffet was quoted as saying that profit margins have never been higher for American business.  Clearly exporting manufacturing and high pollution causing processes to China and Southeast Asia guarantees those sky high profit margins for the 200 CEOs of the Business Round Table (who advise Dumbyass on all things that affect them).  They don&#039;t care that Dumbyass is taking away the common folk&#039;s Constitutional Rights.  Dumbyass will produce his illegal wiretaps and warrantless searches upon request for these scions of American Industry.  Remember Dumbyass is just a regular guy, n&#039;est pas?

3.  We have brave and honorable Americans who have identified the solution to the corrupt sickness that has befallen America.  They are our true journalists, like Ms. Kaye of makethemaccountable.com and NYU&#039;s Mark Crispin Miller, all the people from FreePress.Net, etc...  The solution is that we must have a free and non-commercialized press that will speak truth to power and will expose to all the people the corrupt that are abusing America&#039;s largess.  Dumbyass has not been held accountable.  Then again neither was Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, George HW Bush or any of their crony underlings, like Ollie North or John Negroponte.  A free press would naturally bring all Americans together to reach concensus of what is right and wrong and what direction America will take.  

4.  One thing is abundantly clear.  GWB has given America&#039;s image a black eye and potential future immigrants to America , like the Russian mathematicians who started Google, will think twice about coming to America rather than emmigrating to Germany, England or Ireland.  GWB is not good for America in so many ways not but least because he is a self-serving dictator who perpetrated the biggest crime in US history - the aiding and abetting of the attack on the World Trade Towers on 9/11.</description>

		<description>This never was a &#039;War on Terror&quot;--it was/is a &quot;War For Terror&quot;.

The role of the democrats is the same role the Vichy French had with Adolph. Why are the demos so weak, or cowardly or submissive? The are not any of that, they are a willing part of it.

I&#039;m not going Green, I&#039;m for replacing the Vichy with loyalists.</description>
